Yes but is the kidney from an alcoholic or a dead person? IF it were a healthy kidney, it could be more than the car is worth.

Hmmm... a thousand bucks so far....

Almost like I am having an auction of my own.

less than two grand more, and the reserve will have been met!

Come on! Keep bidding! Don't let this one pass you by!

I'm going to replace it with an '09 Jetta TDI. From what I have seen, experienced, and read, I should be able to get 50mpg without too much trouble.
I should have it sometime next month - if you want, we can arrange a test drive and a cup of coffee.

I will trade you a previously owned little sister, and previously owned iPhone for your E420....



I may have some issues with the transfer of title with the little sister though...

It's not a salvage title, is it?

If the little sister is in good shape, and has a few miles left in her, we might have a deal - How's the body? Any dents or major accidents? Does she overheat easily? (thinking she might, if she reads this).
You can skip the iPhone - too many gadgets that I'll never use.

TTIWWP. What year is the little sister? Dimensions? Any bumps and how large?

Details, details. We can work that out.

Well...I had decided on $3500.00
Today I changed it to $3k - although I might have the lousy mpg issue resolved. Still might keep it at 3k, since I need the money for a fatter down payment.

Sound ok to y'all?
